The XPointer element()
scheme is intended to be used with the XPointer Framework [XPtrFrame] to allow basic addressing of XML elements.

- Translation for XPointer Framework

This specification defines the XML Pointer Language (XPointer) Framework, an extensible system for XML addressing that underlies additional XPointer scheme specifications. The framework is intended to be used as a basis for fragment identifiers for any resource whose Internet media type is one of text/xml
, application/xml
, text/xml-external-parsed-entity
, or application/xml-external-parsed-entity
. Other XML-based media types are also encouraged to use this framework in defining their own fragment identifier languages.

The XPointer xmlns()
scheme is intended to be used with the XPointer Framework [XPtrFrame] to allow correct interpretation of namespace prefixes in pointers, for instance, namespace-qualified scheme names and namespace-qualified element or attribute names appearing within scheme data.

This specification defines the XML Linking Language (XLink), which allows elements to be inserted into XML documents in order to create and describe links between resources. It uses XML syntax to create structures that can describe links similar to the simple unidirectional hyperlinks of today's HTML, as well as more sophisticated links.

XPath is a language for addressing parts of an XML document, designed to be used by both XSLT and XPointer.

- XML Linking Working Group
The interaction of XLink linking elements and styling has not previously been carefully described. This note, the result of an XML Linking/XSL joint task force, attempts to rectify that oversight by providing a clear conceptual model for linking and styling and suggestions for the practical application of that model using current W3C Recommendations (and Working Drafts, Candidate Recommendations, and Proposed Recommendations).

This document specifies requirements for the XLink specification. Xlink defines XML-conforming syntax for expressing links among XML documents and other Internet resources, and defines some of the behavior of applications that support it.

This document presents requirements for the XPointer language. XPointer provides ways to directly identify any node, data, or selection in any XML document by describing its structure and context. An identified data location is called a "target." The XPointer specification is particularly meant to enable hyperlinks to identify any such data, regardless of whether there is (or even could be) an ID on the target or not. The XPointer specification is now being developed in the XML-Linking Working Group, building on Working Drafts developed in the XML Working Group.

This document is a liaison statement from XML Linking Working Group to the XML Information Set working group. Because the XPointer specification under development in the XML Linking WG must refer to structural parts of XML documents, the structure it addresses must be explicit. Document structure specifications such as DOM and the XML Information Set may wish to consider the XPointer requirements in order to insure interoperability when used with XPointer and XLink. Thus we have set out in this document, some constraints we believe XPointer has, for its use with a system representing XML information structures.
This document explicates the design principles behind the XLink language and its related XPointer language.
